important that you thoroughly read these
instructions and carefully keep them for further
reference.

appliance could get damaged.
1. Unwind the power cord (16) and plug the
appliance into an electrical outlet (220
-
240V).
Before you plug the appliance into an
electrical outlet, we recommend unwinding
the entire power cord (6,3 m) to avoid any
overheating and damage.
2. Rotate the switch-on/power electronic control
(11) clockwise to start the appliance.
3. To select the desired suction intensity, rotate
the switch-on/power electronic control as far as
position+.
We recommend using a low suction power
on delicate surfaces to avoid any damage
(e.g. curtains, fabrics, cushions etc).
4. To switch off the appliance rotate the switch-on/
power electronic control to the Off position.
5. Unplug it from the electrical outlet and rewind
the cord around the lower (15) and upper (14)
supports.
6. Park the upright vacuum cleaner in a vertical
position or secure it to a wall using the special
outlet when not in use, before
putting on or taking off parts, and
before cleaning. To disconnect,
turn unit off, grasp plug, and pull
out from wall outlet. Never yank
on cord.
• Do not operate any appliance
with a damaged cord or plug or
after the appliance malfunctions
or has been damaged in any
manner. Return the appliance to
an authorized service facility for
examination, repair, or electrical
or mechanical adjustment.
• Do not leave the appliance unat-
tended while it is running.
• After use, get hold of the plug to disconnect it
from the electrical outlet and wind the power
cord.
• Do not bend the power cord and keep it away
from sharp edges to avoid any damage.

As the Pure Clean dust bags (19) are made of fabric,
they are more resistant than conventional paper bags
andcan retain very ne dust/powderparticles more
effectively, thus ensuring maximum hygiene.
We recommend replacing the Pure Clean
bag when the full-bag red indicator lights
up. In any case change it at least once a year to be

appliance. The pores of a bag clogged with dust/
powder particles reduce the motor's suction
power and can even damage it.
1. Make sure the appliance is disconnected from
the electrical outlet.
2. Press the dust-compartment opening button (8)
to open the dust compartment lid (6).
3. Remove the Pure Clean dust bag by lightly
pressing the dust bag support (21).
Dispose of the dust bag in compliance with
all local regulations on waste disposal.
4. Fit a new Pure Clean dust bag to the intake
valve (20), making sure it locks into the dust bag
support.
5. Close the dust compartment lid (6) until it clicks
into place.
Make sure the dust bag is properly coupled
to the relevant support to prevent it from
coming loose during use.
